Rating: 5
Summary: The best.
Comment: Derek Jeter The PRIDE Of The Yanks is the best book I have ever read. It is full of great discription. I LOVED IT!

Rating: 3
Summary: For "Teenie-Boppers" not adults
Comment: The first 6 chapters are ok....but the information is very repetitive...from chpt 7 on is for hormonal little girls. The book does chronicle Derek's life but the author could not find enough material to fill the book...it repeats throught the book, a teenage girl would love this book, a person who is a baseball fan will find this painfull, a Jeter fan can get through it. Derek Jeter: A Yankee for the New Millennium is a much better book for baseball fans over the age of 17.

Rating: 1
Summary: Don't Bother
Comment: It was absolutely painful to get through this book.

I realize it was an unauthorized biography, but I really didn't need to spend money to read interviews with Derek's 4th grade teacher, snippets of Joe Torre's memoirs, or recaps of what other writers that Derek actually spoke to had to say.

The author seemed to know he didn't have enough material for a book so he just took up space, wasting tons of pages talking about (and repeating) utter nonsense, or things that had nothing whatsoever to do with Derek Jeter, the person.

Though it's meant more as a motivational book for kids, I thought "The Life You Imagine" provided much more information, which actually came from Derek himself. I'd buy that one if you're interested in learning about Derek Jeter.
